Back Cover of Album

This is the back cover of the album "Whats Going On" by Marvin Gaye.  It is raining just like it appears to be on the front cover. He has on the same outift and is perhaps posing the same. The only real difference is it is zoomed out and taken from the front of him, so that the length of his body can be seen. His expression does look different, more ponderous, more philosophic. The setting of the shot seems to be outside, perhaps near a swing or a type of yard material. Behind Gaye is a scrap pile of what appears to be toys and furniture. Add this to the effect of rain on Gaye, and it looks to be a very real, authenthic shot. There are no pretenses, and the things in the shot almost look a little crummy. On the cover are the songs assigned to either the front side of the recrod, or the back side. As exemplified by the universal music group website,
